Cardura XL Reviews

For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "I have been taking Cardura for 15 years along with a good OTC prostate formula med. My BPH has been under control. This year I developed ringing in my ears, it came on slowly but then all the time. I went to several ENT doctors, my own general doctor, and a few other MDs, and they all said it was normal for someone my age and that the meds I was on definitely could not be causing the ringing. I had test after test, and they all said, 'get used to it,' it happens to men my age (67). Well, I am on a few meds, so I tried to eliminate them one by one just for a while to see if it made a difference. When I got to the Cardura, it was like a switch. It went away after 5 days off the drug. I would say 90%. Now if I take one Cardura pill, it comes back immediately."


For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "Used Cardura XL on and off for several years now, and more regularly recently. Wanted a new prescription after moving to Europe, however, the doctor didn't know the product and recommended as an alternative Tamsulosin (Pradif T), which did not provide any relief with urination, especially at night (blocked). Switched back to my remaining Cardura XL and found an equivalent product in Europe called Cardura CR. Just perfect flow, day and night! No side effects."


For Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia "This named drug is prescribed normally in Spain and France, usually packaged as Carduran. I have used it for ten years but cannot get it in Australia. It was very effective at reducing levels of PSA."
